The model number is P4INSASBVTS. It operates on 120V AC/60Hz with 3.0A current, produces 38 lb./day of nugget ice at optimal conditions (1.6 lb./hr. at 70°F ambient), has a 3.0 lbs ice storage capacity, and measures 13.43 x 17.5 x 16.5 inches with a weight of 37.6 lbs when empty. The operating environment range is 55°F to 90°F.
How do I set up and prepare my GE Profile Nugget Ice Maker before first use?
First, carefully remove all packing materials and place the ice maker upright on a flat, level surface. Slide the drip tray under the front edge, aligning it with the front feet. Before first use, sanitize and rinse the ice maker with clean water for five minutes. Ensure 4 inches of clearance on all sides of the unit.
How long does it take for the ice maker to start producing ice after powering on?
The ice maker will begin producing ice in approximately 20 minutes after you press the Power button to start it. Use the provided ice scoop to dispense ice from the bin once production begins.
What do the Cleaning and Defrosting indicator lights mean?
The Cleaning indicator will flash after 100 hours of ice making to alert you that a descale cycle is needed; flashing stops once the cycle is completed. The Defrosting indicator lights up if the ice maker detects a frozen auger and low ice production; the unit will automatically run a rinse cycle to defrost and then resume making ice.
How often should I clean and descale my GE Profile Nugget Ice Maker?
Descaling is recommended every 2-3 weeks depending on your water hardness. Sanitizing is recommended once per week to maintain optimal performance and ice quality.
How do I install the optional Opal Water Filter?
Remove the mesh screen from the lower-left corner of the water reservoir and insert the water filter into that hole with the filter plug facing away from you. Push the filter down until you hear a clicking sound indicating it is securely in place. Remember to remove the water filter and reinstall the screened intake cap before cleaning your ice maker.
